Release notes below belong to Cello beta release, which was written for Distinct TCP/IP's interface. The "cello.zip" refered to there is cello-dt.zip on this archive, The file cello-ws.zip is an archive of the later alpha release of Cello for the winsock TCP/IP interface, and should work with a variety of winsock-compliant TCP/IP packages. _____________________________________________ Cello WWW Browser Beta Release 0.1 This file last updated on: 8 June 1993 Please read through this file before trying to install or configure Cello; it should (we hope) save you some trouble. Like any other networking software Cello takes a little time and a lot of information to install. The download/setup process for Cello has two major components: downloading and unpacking the files you need, and following a fairly elaborate set of instructions contained on the online help system. This file describes the first part; once you're all moved in and unpacked, you can fire up the Help system from the Windows Program Manager to get the rest of the information you need. -------------------- 1) Downloading files -------------------- On fatty.law.cornell.edu you should find and download (if you haven't already) these files: README.1ST -- what you're reading CELLO.ZIP -- Cello executable, help, and support files. It contains: CELLO.EXE the executable CLOHELP.HLP the Windows Help file CELLO.BMK Cello bookmark file CELLO.STY Cello style file DEFAULT.HTM Home page DIS.ZIP -- TCP/IP stack used with Cello (zipped disk) It contains: FTP.DLL TNET.DLL OSLIB.DLL RPC.DLL SOCKET.DLL GHOST.EXE DISTINCT.EXE CONFIG.EXE CONFIG.HLP IPX.COM ODIPKT.COM and a raft of other drivers. This file has to be unpacked onto a blank floppy in order to install properly; it's a zipped version of the Distinct runtime diskette. (optional stuff, but you'll end up wanting it:) VIEWERS.ZIP -- Viewers and sound players to use with Cello, contents will vary, but contains viewers for .GIF and .JPG files, a sound player, and the Windows sound driver for the IBM PC speaker (in a self-extracting EXE file called SPEAK.EXE). Most of these are also available from ftp.cica.indiana.edu or one of its mirrors, and the versions there may be more recent. GSWIN.ZIP -- Monster file containing all the stuff for Windows GhostScript. I won't even guess at what all might be in there. Permits you to view PostScript files from Cello. ------------------------------ 2) Unpacking ------------------------------ You'll need a 1.2Mb or 1.44 Mb blank, formatted floppy disk. Start by making some directories. These names aren't mandatory in any way, but they are the ones that are used by the documentation and the help system, so you'll possibly be less confused if you use them. We suggest: C:\CELLO for Cello executables and support files C:\CELLO\VIEWERS for viewers and GhostScript C:\CELLO\DOWNLOAD to hold files you grab with Cello C:\ETC and C:\WINDOWS\DISTINCT to hold all the Distinct stuff (and that's how all the documentation is written). Unpack CELLO.ZIP into C:\CELLO. Unpack VIEWERS.ZIP into C:\CELLO\VIEWERS. If you're going to use the sound player, you'll have to move the .DLL into your Windows directory. If you have no sound card, you'll have to unpack SPKR.ZIP and install the sound driver using the Windows Configuration applet. Put your blank floppy disk into the appropriate drive (A:, for the sake of argument). Switch to drive a: and unpack DIS.ZIP onto the blank disk, USING PKUNZIP -D to preserve the directory structure. ------------------------------ 3) Setup ------------------------------ Setup instructions for the whole megillah are in the Windows Help file which comes with it. You can start this up by starting File Manager, going to the C:\CELLO directory, and double-clicking on CLOHELP.HLP. Installation help for the Distinct stack can be found both in the Cello Online help file, and in Distinct's CONFIG.HLP. Have fun with it. I did, kinda, sorta. Tb. Thomas R.
